## Background
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a compound represented by general formula (I):




(wherein all symbols are as defined below), a salt or N-oxide of the compound, or a solvate or prodrug of the compound or the salt or N-oxide (hereinbelow, may be sometimes abbreviated as “the compound according to the present invention”).

Background of Art
Prostaglandin E2 (hereinbelow, abbreviated as “PGE2”) is known as a metabolite in the arachidonate cascade, and is also known to have a cell protection effect, an oxytocic effect, an algogenic effect, an effect of promoting the peristaltic movement of the digestive tract, an awakening effect, a gastric acid secretion inhibiting effect, a blood pressure lowering effect, a diuretic effect and the like.
PGE2 receptors are classified into four subtypes having different roles from one another, i.e., EP1, EP2, EP3, EP4. PGE2 has a wide variety of physiological activities, and therefore has such a problem that, when used as a drug, other undesirable action may be caused besides the intended action. Therefore, it has been attempted to overcome the problem by examining the physiological functions and the expressing sites of the individual subtypes and producing a compound that is effective only on a specific subtype, i.e., a so-called subtype-specific agonist.
For example, an EP2 receptor is considered to be involved in the inhibition of the production of TNF-α and the enhancement of the production of IL-10, and therefore a selective EP2 agonist is considered to be useful for the prevention and/or treatment of immune diseases, allergic diseases, neuronal death, dysmenorrhea, premature birth, miscarriage, baldness, ocular diseases, erectile dysfunction, arthritis, lung injury, pulmonary fibrosis, pulmonary emphysema, bronchitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, liver injury, acute hepatitis, cirrhosis, shock, nephritis, renal failure, cardiovascular diseases, systemic inflammatory response syndrome, sepsis, hemophagocytic syndrome, macrophage activation syndrome, Still's disease, Kawasaki disease, burn injury, systemic granuromatous disease, colitis ulcerosa, Crohn's disease, hypercytokinemia on dialysis, multiple organ failure, bone diseases, cartilage injury and others.
Meanwhile, as compounds which have analogous structures to the structure of the compound according to the present invention, selective FP agonists are disclosed in, for example, International Publication No. 2011/013651 pamphlet (Patent Document 1) and International Publication No. 2012/102355 pamphlet (Patent Document 2), and prostacyclin derivatives are disclosed in, for example, Japanese Patent Laying-Open No. S61-218588 (Patent Document 3) and Japanese Patent Laying-Open No. S55-89261 (Patent Document 4).
However, in these prior art documents, there is found no statement or suggestion about selective EP2 agonists.

Pharmacological Experimental Example
In Vitro Test
(1) Measurement of Agonist Activity on Various Prostanoid Receptors
Using Chem1 cells or CHO cells in which various prostanoid receptors were forcibly expressed, respectively, agonist activities of test compounds on various prostanoid receptors was determined employing, as a measure, an intracellular cyclic AMP (hereinbelow, abbreviated as “cAMP”) production amount or an intracellular calcium concentration.
<Compound Treatment>
The test compound and a control substance (PGE2 and PGF2α) were dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) to prepare a 10 mmol/L solution. The 10 mmol/L solution thus prepared was thawed upon use, then serially diluted with DMSO, and then diluted with a buffer solution for measurement use or a buffer solution for measurement use 2, and then the resulting solution was subjected to an experiment.
<Cell Culturing>
Cells forcibly expressing various prostanoid receptors were standing-cultured at 37° C. in the presence of 5% CO2 using a DMEM medium (Sigma) (for culturing FP-Chem1) containing inactivated (56° C., 30 minutes) 9.8 vol % nondialysed-FBS (Life Technologies), 1 vol % Non Essential Amino Acids (Life Technologies), 10 mmol/L HEPES Buffer Solution (Life Technologies), 0.5 vol % GENETICIN (Life Technologies) and 1% penicillin-streptomycin (Life Technologies) or an α-MEM medium (Sigma) (for culturing EP2-CHO) containing inactivated (56° C., 30 minutes) 9.8 vol % dialysed-FBS (Life Technologies) and penicillin-streptomycin-glutamine (Life Technologies). Subculturing was carried out by the following manner.
The medium was removed, and washed with a phosphate-buffered physiological saline not containing Ca2+ and Mg2+ one time. A proper amount of trypsin-EDTA (Life Technologies) was added, and this was incubated at room temperature, cells were peeled, and a medium having a volume which is 10-fold a volume of trypsin-EDTA was added to stop an enzymatic reaction. After cells were recovered into a centrifuging tube, and centrifuged at room temperature for 3 minutes at 120 g, the supernatant was removed. Cells were suspended in a proper amount of a medium, and seeded in a culturing flask.
(1-1) Measurement of EP2 Agonist Activity (Measurement of cAMP Concentration)
On the measurement day, a medium was removed, and EP2-CHO was washed with a phosphate-buffered physiological saline containing 2 mmol/L EDTA and not containing Ca2+ and Mg2+ one time. A proper amount of the phosphate-buffered physiological saline containing 2 mmol/L EDTA and not containing Ca2+ and Mg2+ was added, this was incubated at 37° C. in the presence of 5% CO2, cells were peeled, cells were recovered into a centrifuging tube, and centrifuged at room temperature for 3 minutes at 550 g, and the supernatant was removed. Cells were suspended in a proper amount of a buffer solution for measurement 1 (MEM medium (Invitrogen) containing 1.0 w/v % bovine serum albumin (Sigma) and 2 μmol/L diclofenac (Sigma)), and centrifuged at room temperature for 3 minutes at 200 g, and the supernatant was removed. Cells were suspended in a buffer solution for measurement 2 (MEM medium (Invitrogen) containing 1.0 w/v % bovine serum albumin (Sigma), 2 μmol/L diclofenac (Sigma) and 1 mmol/L 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine), and each 25 μL of the suspension was dispensed into a 96-well 1⁄2 area plate so that the cell number per well became 1.25×106. A buffer solution for measurement 2 (25 μL) containing an agonist at a variety of concentrations was added to carry out a reaction at room temperature for 30 minutes. Measurement of a cAMP concentration was carried out using the cAMP HTRF HiRange kit (CIS bio International). According to the two step protocol of the kit manual, each 25 μL of cAMP-D2 and Cryptase diluted with a lysis buffer were added, and this was incubated at room temperature for 1 hour. After incubation for 1 hour, time resolution fluorescence at 620 nm and 660 nm when excited at 340 nm was measured using SpectraMax M5e (Molecular Device), and a ratio (TRF ratio) was obtained, thereby, a cAMP concentration was calculated from a calibration line.
(1-2) Measurement of FP Agonist Activity (Measurement of Intracellular Calcium Concentration)
Regarding FP-Chem1, by the same method as that of subculturing, cells were peeled and suspended and, before two days from measurement, the suspension was seeded on a 96-well UV plate so that the cell number per well became 0.5×104, and standing-cultured at 37° C. in the presence of 5% CO2. On the measurement day, after the medium was removed from each well of the 96-well UV plate, each well was washed with a phosphate-buffered physiological saline not containing Ca2+ and Mg2+ one time. To each well was added 120 μL of a buffer solution for measurement (Hank's balanced salt solution (Invitrogen) containing 0.1 w/v % bovine serum albumin, 2.8 μmol/L diclofenac, 1.25 mmol/L Probenecid and 20 mmol/L HEPES (Invitrogen)) containing FLIPR Calcium 5 Assay Kit (Molecular Devices), and this was incubated at room temperature for about 60 minutes under light-shielding conditions, which was subjected to an experiment.
The 96-well UV plate was set in a fluorescent spectral photometer (FDSS-7000EX, Hamamatsu Photonics K.K.), and an intracellular calcium concentration was measured. A buffered solution for measurement (30 μL) containing an agonist at a variety of concentrations was added to carry out a reaction. Measurement of an intracellular calcium concentration was carried out by irradiating cells with excited light having a wavelength of 485 nm, and measuring a fluorescent intensity at 525 nm.
<Results>
Using the measurement values obtained by the above-mentioned method, an EC50 value was calculated as an index for agonist activity of the compound according to the present invention on human EP2 and a human FP receptor.
The results are shown in the following tables.

In Vivo Test

As can be easily understood by a person skilled in the art, in an in vivo test, since regarding all test compounds, carboxylic acid which is an active body has poor corneal permeability, pharmacological action of the active body was evaluated by ocular instillation administration of a compound which had been converted into an ester such as an ethyl ester or an isopropyl ester, or an alcohol.
(2) Intraocular Pressure Lowering Activity
A test compound-containing solution (30 μL) which had been adjusted to each of various concentrations was ocular instillation-administered to the left or right eye of a male monkey (a cynomolgus monkey) under consciousness. An intraocular pressure after administration was measured with time from administration initiation to after 24 hours. Upon measurement of an intraocular pressure, a cynomolgus monkey was fixed on a monkey chair, and the monkey was anesthetized by ocular instillation-administering an ocular surface anesthetic (Benoxil eye drops 0.4% Santen Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.). After mounting of a blepharostat (Handaya Co., Ltd.), an intraocular pressure of both eyes was measured (7 to 8 examples per group) using a pneumatic applanation flat tonometer (Model 30 Classic, REICHERT). A difference between an intraocular pressure value before the administration of a test substance and an intraocular pressure value after the administration of the test substance was calculated as an intraocular pressure lowering rate in accordance with the following equation, and the sustainability of intraocular eye lowering action was evaluated using a maximum intraocular pressure lowering rate during measurement.
